Manual lte provider network selection LBR20
Hi,
I am French living in Belgium and given the exorbitant prices of internet offers in the country where I live, I preferred to keep my French mobile subscription, having a hundred GB in roaming included in my package.
So I opted for the Orbi LBR20 solution.
I have an excellent 4G+ connection with my smartphone on the Base network (a Belgian mobile provider) ; I did a bandwidth test with a download speed of 210Mbps.
I have the choice between 2 belgian networks in manual mode.
But there is one problem: The LBR20 connects to the worst network of the 2 called Proximus ( another belgian mobile provider), with 17Mbps going down.
So my question is the following even if I am pessimistic: is it possible to force the choice of the mobile operator manually on the LBR20?
Thanks.

Hello Abbipepere,
Welcome to the NETGEAR Community!
I understand that you would like a way to designate the mobile operator your LBR20 connects to. This can be done by modifying the APN settings of your LBR20 to point to the desired network.
To modify the APN settings please navigate to the following:
ADVANCED > Setup > Internet Setup > Mobile Broadband Settings > APN.
Best,
Kevin
